BAYERN MUNICH
Bayern Minich finds themselves in an unfamiliar position heading into the final stretch of the Bundesliga season. After 25 matches, they sit second in the standings behind leaders Borussia Dortmund. This has led to changes at the club, with former Dortmund and Chelsea head coach Thomas Tuchel taking over as Bayern’s new boss.
With Bayern still very much in top competitions this season, expectations are high on the new boss as they prepare for a title-deciding fixture. The new head coach will have to try to implement his own ideas and win over the dressing room, while also getting the best out of star players like Mane. There is no doubt that it will be a tough task, but if anyone can do it. Tuchel can.
Bayern Munich emerged as the winner in 3 of their last 5 league games (3 wins, 0 draws, and 2 defeats). In 12 games on home turf in the current Bundesliga season 2022/2023, Bayern Munich has won 8 times, with 4 matches ending in a draw, and 0 games ending in defeat (Goal difference 39:11).
BORUSSIA DORTMUND
It’s been a rollercoaster ride for Dortmund this season. They started off the campaign in flying form, winning their first 10 games in a row. However, they then suffered a dip in form and exited the Champions League at the hands of Chelsea. This was a hugely disappointing result for the team, but they have refocused their efforts on winning the Bundesliga title.
Dortmund currently sits 1st in the Bundesliga standings, 1 point ahead of Bayern Munich. This weekend’s fixture between the two sides is therefore crucial, as it could determine who goes into the final stretch of the season with an advantage. It will be a tough away game for Dortmund, but they will need to face their fears and put in a strong performance if they want to win the League.
In their last 5 Bundesliga fixtures, Borussia Dortmund has won 4 games (4 wins, 1 draw, 0 defeats). In all previous Bundesliga matches away from home, Borussia Dortmund has a positive record: 7 wins, 1 draw, and 5 defeats – Goal difference 19:19.
